NovelAppHolly answered his call and promised to meet with Dean the next day. They would get a lead on Ivy's whereabouts in a day's time.
Avery immediately texted Hayden. [Holly Blanche is in Bridgedale! Dean is meeting her tomorrow. If you follow him, you will find Holly!] Hayden replied right away. [I know what to do, Mom. Go to sleep. It's late.] [Send others to track Dean down. Don't go on your own.] [I know.] She glanced at the tand realized that it was almost one in the morning, but she did not feel like sleeping at all.
Elliot turned around and she held her breath. She was concerned that she might wake him.
Suddenly, he spoke, "Avery, are you still awake?" "I didn't even move!" she muttered. "How do you know?" He reached out to her and wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her to him. "You are stiff. That wouldn't happen if you are asleep." "Oh... When did you wake up?" She turned around to face him. "Did you wake up when I got out of bed?" "Yeah. When you got out of bed, I thought you were going to the bathroom, but you went out of the bedroom." "Why didn't you tell you that you were awake?" She blushed awkwardly. "I didn't even notice that you were pretending to be asleep." He chuckled. "I didn't want you to feel uncomfortable. I wanted to wait till you went back to sleep, but you stayed awake. Who were you texting? What happened?" Avery held onto Elliot and buried her face into his neck, before whispering, "Dean is meeting Holly tomorrow, and he said she knows where Ivy is." "Did he threaten you again?" Realizing that it was a bigger issue than he had imagined, Elliot switched on the lights. "Avery, if Holly is coming out of hiding, we can't just do nothing." He sat up and Avery felt as though Elliot was going to rush to Bridgedale as fast as he could.
"Elliot, I've already texted Hayden, and he will send someone to watch Dean." Avery sat up as well and held his hand. "Dean didn't threatenHe said he is tired of having to deal with us and wants to focus on new project. He is askingto back off from the Marshall's Award committee because he needs to use Angela's title as the winner of the Marshall's Award to make money." "That's still a threat." Elliot scowled. "If Dean wants to make money out of this, he can do it in his dreams!" "Don't get upset, Elliot. His new project has just started, and we don't know what product he is going to cup with yet! He won't be able to launch anything within half a year, so let's wait and see if ver Hayden's men can find a chance to kidnap Holly." Avery was determined to remain in Aryadelle with Elliot, and she was not about to let Elliot run off to Bridgedale. "Yeah. I trust Hayden." The frown on his face eased. "Let's see what happens tomorrow!" Relieved, she said, "I thought you would fly to Bridgedale right away or send someone you trust to keep an eye on Dean." "That reminds me..." Elliot reached over to the nightstand to grab his phone and contact someone for help.
"Elliot, just stay out of it. Hayden will find the right people for the job because he has the money to do so." Elliot stilled.
"Dream Maker belongs to Hayden and Mike she said. "All I did wasz invest in it, and I've stayed out of it the entire time. It proves how capable he is. I am sure that he won't let Dean get what he wants."
